Re: [weld-dev] AnnotationLiteral

Gavin, I wonder if we should actually have AnnotationLiteral and TypeLiteral actually implement Serializable as this places a burden on all subclasses, that they *must* be serializable (clearly this is not enforced, but it is correct, and the error messages users get will be a lot worse). Rather I wonder if *Literal should support subclasses which wish to implement Serializable. To do this we would just indicate this is the case in the javadoc and remove Serializable.
